“October! Yay! I won’t add to the plethora of blog posts that wax poetic about October, so I”ll just say that I love it and I’m very happy that it’s here!

Ruby Redbird beer!) and even got to catch a Spazmatics show. When do I get to go back?”
*Soup season! You KNOW ramen is on my mind. I’m drooling over How Sweet It Is’s Roasted Chicken Ramen. Look at that egg!
* I’ve always wanted to try felting, but it’s a little intimidating. This adorable felted ball garland seems like a great place to start- plus you get GARLAND when you’re done. I LOVE GARLAND.
* Go Green, Wear Blue. Obsessed with this conscious denim from H&M. I’ll take that sweatshirt and that flowy linen tunic and that woven scarf and…
